88th Annual Dalton Fall Festival

The car show at this year's Dalton Fall Festival was expanded by a full block.

DALTON – Hundreds of residents and visitors turned out last weekend for the 88th annual Dalton Fall Festival.

"It went really well," Paul Parker, chairwoman of the organizing committee, said on Monday morning. "Overall, it was a great weekend."

The sun was shining and the weather pleasant throughout the weekend as participants competed in various competitions, enjoyed community meals and listened to live music.

This year, the area used for the car show was expanded by a block, Parker said.

"We definitely filled it up this year," she said.

A chicken noodle soup dinner was also a hit, as it always is, she added.

On Saturday night, Brooke McRoberts performed at Leyton High School – her alma matter.

"She graduated from Leyton and her mother lives in Gurley," Parker said. "It was great for her to come back to Nebraska and perform."

At Saturday's horseshoe competition, Tina Sifuentez and Tony Bazauez Jr. took first place in the Class A division. Bill Nelson and Cole Stonewad won second and Rosebud Rose and Doug Meyer finished third. There were 18 players.
